A method for processing a surface of an area to be processed using an autonomous mobile robot. The method includes the steps of controlling the robot in order to process the area according to a first processing pattern, monitoring a region in the surroundings of the robot, wherein the region has a fixed position relative to the robot, and controlling the robot in order to process the area according to a second processing pattern if a reachable and unprocessed region is detected in the monitored region. 1. A method for processing a surface of an area to be processed by an autonomous mobile robot , comprising:processing a surface part of a surface area according to one or more process patterns;storing an already processed surface part of the surface area,wherein storing the processed surface part is done in a raster map.2. The method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein each already processed surface part is marked as processed in the raster map.3. The method in accordance with claim 2 , wherein each already processed surface part is marked in the raster map as processed depending on a measure of a position inaccuracy of the robot in the area.4. The method in accordance with claim 3 , wherein claim 3 , for each already processed surface part claim 3 , an inaccuracy value indicating a position inaccuracy of the robot is stored in the raster map.5. The method in accordance with claim 1 ,wherein the raster map comprises a plurality of squares; andwherein, for each square, the raster map stores whether the relative square has already been processed.6.
